Anyone other than David Suchet doesn’t seem like Poirot to me...he just played that character for so long...flawlessly.

Agreed. Suchet was perfect. I read several of the books. Cannot imagine anyone better. I have his entire series on Blu-ray. In the Suchet version of Death on the Nile the wife was played by Emily Blunt in an early role.

I also liked the Ustinov version of Death on the Nile, but Ustinov always seemed to rumpled-looking to be Poirot.

I think 85 years after publication is outside the window where you can expect “spoiler warnings”.

I saw the Ustinov movie as a kid many years ago, but I don’t remember who the killer was. I do remember that Angela Lansbury’s character got shot right between the eyes before she was about to reveal who it was. I’m curious to see how they recreate that scene.
